The ChangeLog.old/ChangeLog.20 file for 2.31 will thus be generated just before tagging a release. --- Makefile | 2 +- NEWS | 4 ++++ timezone/README | 4 ++-- 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 3dafcec2b2..8f0a93aceb 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -673,7 +673,7 @@ TAGS: generated := $(generated) stubs.h -files-for-dist := README INSTALL configure ChangeLog NEWS +files-for-dist := README INSTALL configure NEWS # Regenerate stuff, then error if these things are not committed yet. dist-prepare: $(files-for-dist) diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index b85989ec3d..0ecee6c13b 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -104,6 +104,10 @@ Changes to build and runtime requirements: * It is no longer necessary to have recent Linux kernel headers to build working (non-stub) system call wrappers. +* The ChangeLog file is no longer present in the toplevel directory of the + source tree.
